Book Review on Gold of Kings by Davis Bunn

By D.I. Telbat

Welcome, Reading Friends and New Subscribers! Thank you for joining us for David Telbat’s–

Book Review on Gold of Kings:
A Storm Syrrell Adventure

Author: Davis Bunn
Review by: D.I. Telbat
Genre: Christian action-adventure
Rating: 5 stars
Retailer links below

Gold of Kings is the kind of adventure novel that you can sit and read—and feel like you’ve enjoyed a quest around the world! It has all the elements I look for in a good book: underlying Christian message (not preachy), action that leaves you breathless, and a hint of romance that makes you smile.

But Author Davis Bunn goes beyond these storytelling traits that leaves many authors in the dust. He has extensively researched locations (including scents in the air), and occupations (including insider info), that left me thinking several times, “Oh, so that’s what that city is like!” or, “Okay, now I understand a little more about that kind of work.”

The story itself began straight from the underbelly of greed—a Caribbean prisoner is released from jail early and mysteriously. His name is Harry Bennett, and he’s employed from the first chapter by a ghost from his past—to help Storm Syrrell find the treasure of a thousand lifetimes. An assassin is on the loose as well, and a suspicious aunt is worth keeping your eye on. And I won’t forget to mention betrayal, and secret art deals and artifacts with hidden clues . . . with Israel in the historical spotlight.

I highly recommend Gold of Kings for adventure readers, teens and up. It’s clean, fast-paced, and the violence isn’t overboard at all. As for Davis Bunn’s other novels—I look forward to reading them as well! I give this novel 5 stars.

Prayer Prompt: As our country once again has new leadership, we need to pray for the Holy Spirit to influence each leader’s thoughts, words, and actions. And for ourselves, as Christians, that we might live peaceably and godly amongst our neighbors. (I Tim 2:1, 2)

David’s Latest Novel Update Post

Feb ’18 D.I. Telbat Novel Update + Short Story

Welcome, Reading Friends! This is Dee with our Feb 2018 D.I. Telbat Novel Update on David’s latest and upcoming writing endeavors. You’ll also find a link below to one of his past short stories. Thanks for joining us!

DISTANT HARM

David Telbat is finished with his second draft of Distant Harm, Book Three in The COIL Legacy! He said, “Tell readers that I can’t wait for them to read the latest COIL installment. It will challenge us all to live more sacrificially in these Last Days.”

After he goes through the manuscript another time, he will prepare related materials (such as a character sketch and blog posts with behind-the-scenes info) to send to me, along with the document. The book will then move into the editing phase. Four sets of eyes will be on this new novel during the next month. Then I’ll get it ready for our esteemed Beta Readers. Watch for more info to come soon!
